May Event

Late Spring Trail Ride34th Annual Trail RideMay 16-22, 2021

Late spring in the Ozarks is unsurpassed in the way of scenic views. While April is the beginning of our flowering season, May is when everything else begins to wake up as well. The trees are leafed out, grass is greening up, and spring wildflowers are starting to bloom. A ride through the forested hills or along the banks of the Jacks Fork or Current Rivers is a breathtaking sight to behold. Temperatures are perfect for trail riding and it is sometimes warm enough for a swim also. This event hosts an attendance of 100 to 200 guests, which leaves plenty of space for newcomers. Reservations are not required.

We welcome you to ride on your own at any time, but organized trail rides will be provided if you prefer to have a guide. All guided trail rides will be back in camp for lunch. No dogs are allowed at this event. We welcome service dogs, but only service dogs not pets. Guests will be asked to register service dogs with our office upon arrival and will be expected to keep the dog under control and on a leash at all times the animal is outside a trailer. Guests will be asked to describe the task their service dog is trained to perform for them. A certificate from the internet or a service dog vest will not be adequate verification.

If you’re interested in a perfect trail riding environment this would be the event you are looking for!

Cross Country Trail Ride will be taking the following precautions in order to provide a safe environment for our guests:

*All guests will be required to sanitize their hands before entering CCTR Restaurant or Dining Hall.*In May, the dining area will be closed and guests will fill their plates and eat at one of the outdoor tables or at their campsite.*We will be limiting the number of guests in CCTR Restaurant so that we can allow for 6′ distancing during food service and will ask guests to space themselves 6′ apart while going through the food line.*In June, the dining hall will be open for food service. The food bar will be open from 11:30 a.m.-7:00 p.m. daily for lunch and dinner to help with long lines. Guests will be asked to maintain a 6′ space between them while in line. Guests will be able to eat inside the dining hall, but will also have the option to take their meal back to their campsite if they are more comfortable.*We encourage all guests to practice good physical hygiene during your stay with us and wash your hands with soap and water regularly.*All guests will be encouraged to practice social distancing when gathering around campfires or at the dance.

We have presented our plans to the Shannon County Health Department and to our local health inspector for approval. They have both approved these plans and we are making every effort to follow the guidelines suggested by the State of Missouri. Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.
